Ask Prometheusa parameter whose value is beyond the wall of its window
Overload (noun) means: a parameter whose value is beyond the wall of its window. It emerges from parameter, wall, value, window: The parameter's condition attains a value that exceeds the limiting wall, where the value is understood in terms of worth and the window as an opening structure. In the EmergenceLexicon it sits at computed level 15, chaining down to the four foundations (space, time, energy, pattern).
